Tongque Tai is not a platform, but a general name, he is the main platform of a Taiwan group, is facing the Zhanghe River, the center is Tongque Tai, a famous jade dragon platform on the left, a famous Jinfeng platform on the right, each ten zhang high, the two bridges on the horizontal are connected, thousands of households, gold and green, so beautiful!

Today, Cao Cao feasted guests on Tongque Terrace, this platform is also the first time he came over, after climbing the high platform, a little out of breath, Cao Cao sighed in his heart: It's really old! At the highest point of Tongque Terrace, Cao Cao looked at it and couldn't help but admire: "The momentum is majestic, and the weather is thousands!" Yes? ”

Guo Jia, who accompanied Cao Cao, smiled: "That's true, that's it"

Cao Cao turned around, looked at Guo Jia, saw that his face was pale, and he stopped talking, and laughed: "Feng Xiaoding blames me for spending people's and financial resources, extravagance and waste, but?" Don't you understand my true intentions? Let's go! Go up with me! ”

Guo Jia really wanted to persuade Cao Cao not to waste people's and financial resources like this, but Cao Cao also had a last resort, which Guo Jia understood that this time the Tongque Tai Meeting was by no means as simple as it seemed, Cao Cao had his own plans; Except for Cao Cao's absolute henchmen who were all released as the chief officials of one party, the other people were all taken by Cao Cao's side, and they suppressed these people with their majesty. He wanted to see how many people still had the Han family in mind, and he wanted to carry out a comprehensive purge after the Tongquetai meeting, so as to clear all the restless factors for his successor, and in addition to this, he also had to compare his sons; Although he likes Cao Chong and Cao Zhi the most, Cao Cao also knows in his heart that it is not him who can really determine his successor, but his courtiers. Can an inheritor who knows only the bard of poetry be able to suppress these people? That's!

His successor needs to be very scheming, courageous, and enterprising enough, otherwise how can he dominate the world? In short, Cao Cao's requirements for his successor were very high, and he even thought at one point that his successor must surpass him in all aspects; "Who didn't come to those empty seats?" On the main seat, Cao Cao squinted at the vacant seats that did not come, slightly uneasy, or a little surprised, he didn't expect that so many people did not come; Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and looked at him: "I don't know about this, I'll go and investigate?" He is a person who is kind to others, and he hates this kind of intrigue very much, otherwise with his Guo Fengxiao's intelligence, how many people can beat him? Three or two?

Cao Cao smiled: "Forget it! Forget it! People don't come from the reason why they can't come, so we can't force it, right? Hey, Xun Yu and Liu Ye didn't come either! ”

Guo Jia shook his head, Cao Cao asked knowingly, and he had to prevaricate: "They are all sick!" ”

"Okay! You Guo Fengxiao will also talk nonsense with your eyes open! Ay! The world is declining, and people's hearts are not ancient! Cao Cao pretended to shake his head and sigh, and then laughed: "Liu Ye is a relative of the Han Emperor, I understand that he didn't come, Xun You, in fact, I arranged it if he didn't come!" Hey! ”

Unlike Xun Yu, Xun You is not loyal to the Han family, which Cao Cao knows that the reason why he does not come is because Cao Cao sent him to do something else to secretly investigate those who do not come, this is Xun You's task!

"Prime Minister! Can you take a seat? Tian Feng, who was in charge of the host on the stage, came to inquire, and Cao Cao nodded: "It's okay!" Good work, Yuan Hao! ”

Tian Feng said: "This is how it should be!" After speaking, he shouted loudly: "The prime minister has an order, please sit down!" Since he surrendered to Cao Cao, he gradually understood why Yuan Shao was not his opponent, and Yuan Shao was inferior to Cao Cao in terms of martial arts and strategy! Especially scheming! Cao Cao finished blowing him up!

Everyone thanked him, Cao Cao sat on the main seat, looked around, and said, "Everyone! In the past few years, thanks to the blessing of God, the rain is smooth, and the country and the people are safe! I built this platform to thank God for taking care of us! Today, I invite all of you to join us in congratulating!

Today is a day of food and wine! Full of friends! Less long salty set, this will be rare! Later, I will also invite the generals to compare shooting, and the ministers to celebrate together! How about everyone? Come, drink this cup with me first! ”

Everyone raised the wine bottle and drank with Cao Cao, put down the wine bottle, and Cao Cao said: "Ride and shoot begins!" Hang my Xichuan brocade robe high under the willow branches of the island in the middle of the lake, put three arrow stacks, and whoever shoots the red heart will be rewarded with the brocade robe, otherwise, he will be punished with a glass of wine! ”

"Knock knock!" , the three-way drum sounded, the cavalry and archery began, the Cao army was still martial, because they often won and liked the taste of victory, dozens of generals put on their horses, they were now all-stars, causing the Cao army soldiers to roar and cheer wildly; Cao's relatives and nobles are wearing red clothes and black armor, and other generals are wearing black clothes and black armor, which is the two major factions in the current military generals faction under Cao Cao, and the detailed division can also be divided into surrender factions, civilian factions, etc., anyway, these generals have a violent temper, and once there is a dispute, they are easy to quarrel, and they will hate each other and expose their shortcomings when there is a quarrel; Fortunately, although the people in the military general's faction are more likely to have disputes, they dare not make too many mistakes with Cao Cao, and the grudges between these people are also easy to resolve, unlike the intrigue of Wenchen; The drums fell, and the generals who split into two teams were ready to move, and Cao Xiu, the junior among the Cao family's relatives, rode out of the horse, galloping back and forth, heroic and majestic, Cao Xiu took a bow and opened an arrow, and shouted: "Go! ", an arrow hits the red heart in the middle of the three target stampedes; Cao Cao was amazed: "This is my family's thousand-mile horse!" ”

"If the prime minister rewards the brocade robe, he should reward the general who bravely captured the enemy army on the bloody battlefield! Brat! Let it be to me! Cao Cao just wanted to reward Cao Xiu with a brocade robe, and one of the generals with a foreign surname rushed out, Cao Cao saw that it was Cao Xing, Cao Xing's archery skills were quite famous, and he stopped to watch at the moment; But seeing Cao Xing riding his horse three times, opening his bow three times, hitting the bull's-eye each time, and the end was extraordinary, then, Cao Boss decided to reward Cao Xing with a brocade robe, but his decision was quickly stopped, Xiahou Yuan went out to shake off all the arrows on the arrow stack, leaving his own arrows on the top; Cao Cao was embarrassed at this time, so he stopped making any moves, waiting for the final winner to appear; This battle for brocade robes was so complicated that it finally evolved into a big brawl between the generals, fighting each other with real swords and guns, Cao Cao felt a big headache, although he also expected this situation to appear, but he also did not expect that the generals under his command would fight so seriously with each other, and finally had to order Xu Chu and Dian Wei to separate these people; "Is that the case among your colleagues? Yes? I'll let you shoot! It's just a matter of cheering! What the hell are you doing here? If you really want to give this brocade robe to the person with the highest archery, what are you? Yes?

General Huang, Lu Wenhou! Which one is not better than you? Yes? Look at what you look like now! How can there be a trace of the atmosphere that should exist between colleagues, and even beat you to the death! Hit! Now I'll let you fight! It's all dead, so you don't have to worry! Cao Cao angrily scolded these dejected generals, and then looked at the brocade robe that was torn to pieces, and he was even more angry; You're so angry with me! Forget it! Each person will be rewarded with a brocade robe, and another will be given to each of the generals stationed outside! You must know that these generals who have worked diligently to maintain the place deserve to be rewarded the most! ”

Cao Cao's scolding and the final reward made these generals wake up and feel ashamed; "Zhang'er! Come with me! After reprimanding the generals, Cao Cao also ordered them to sit down, and called Cao Zhang to his side, Cao Zhang stuck out his tongue, just now he had a few tricks with Xu Chu on a whim, and his arm was numb at this time; That is, if he dares to do this, who else dares to brush Xu Chu's beard!

"You said that you kid didn't study and had to bow his horse, showing the courage of a horseman, right?" , while pulling Cao Zhang away, Cao Cao said, Cao Zhang smiled: "My father taught me that I was born in troubled times, and I should hold a three-foot Qingfeng, help the lord of Zhongxing, and save the people of Li from fire and water!" Nothing else is of use! ”

Cao Cao scolded with a smile: "The tone is not small! Huai De envied those generals, so he trained you to become a general, who called him a scribe! I still don't know how to ride a horse! I'm scared to death! Hahaha! But listening to your tone, you want to be a general? ”

Cao Zhang was a little excited: "Of course! My ambition is to be a hussar general! Like Wei Qing and Huo Quai! "Woohoo! Say you're fat and you're gasping! Do you know how to be a good general? Cao Cao was quite interested in inquiring, because Cao Zhang was passed on to Li Yu since he was a child, Cao Cao cared more about him;" The reward must be done, the punishment must be believed, the cloth is persistent, the first soldier, and the danger is not afraid! These Cao Zhang once answered Li Yu, and today he came to answer Cao Cao, these words he said seem simple, but it is very difficult to do, Cao Zhang has a deep understanding when he learns from Wei Yan!

"Good! Good! Good! Cao Cao praised a few words: "You sit down on the side!" Yuan Hao! Let the ministers begin! ”

Tian Feng expressed his understanding, and then loudly announced that the poetry competition had begun!

"Report ——!" For these messengers, Cao Cao had an order not to stop them, no matter what he was doing, they must be the first time to let them come over to report the news of military affairs; "Prime Minister! Master Li ordered me to send you a letter! The herald gasped a little quickly, handed the letterhead around his waist to him, and Cao Cao opened it and looked at it: "You go!" Today's banquet on the high platform, you have worked hard, give wine! ”

"The prime minister is so happy, but what kind of gift does Huaide have to give?" , Guo Jia asked; Cao Cao nodded: "Of course it's a happy thing!" Huaide has been operating in Jingzhou for a long time, has leveled the barbaric chaos, repelled Liu Bei of Western Shu, recently, he forced Zhou Yu back again, took Jiangxia County back, and is preparing to use troops against Jiangdong! He asked me if I wanted to do it in person, and if I didn't, he would come by himself! ”

"Yikes! That's a big deal! It seems that Huaide is sure enough! Also, he has formed a tight defense line against Xichuan in Jingxiang, and he has no worries, plus Pang Shiyuan has also made full progress in training sailors, and it is only a matter of time before he uses troops against Jiangdong! What does the prime minister mean? ", Guo Jia;" Let him fight first, the matter on my side has not been dealt with yet, and mobilize another 50,000 soldiers and horses with him, so that Cao Zhang and others can follow him to learn military strategy", after a moment of silence, Cao Cao said, he thought that his fate was not long, and he was actively planning for the future, and it was impossible to be in person;
